Half a loaf.

serindeI felt baking urges this morning. Ostensibly this is to get rid of a lot of second-tier ingredients cluttering up the kitchen (like the 5lb bag of bread flour), but see also "reversion under stress".
Banana bread: old familiar turf, I scarcely need to post about it at this point; except that I'm trying half whole-wheat flour and half all-purpose white.
Standard White Loaf: This is my second Epic Fail at the same recipe (out of Nigella), and I don't know why. It just won't rise. Not a yeast problem, 'cos both times I used more from the same purchase in other recipes and it did fine. Bah.
Parmesan Herb Loaf: This, on the other hand, is working well. The recipe is from the back of the yeast package, of all things. I've shaped the loaves and they're just about done rising & ready to bake. Smells lovely so far.
